I agree with every thing JDGhost said.
But, Just getting rid of or at least making the billboard transparent would be first step towards wgt's recovery process.
WGT must have recruited their technology engineers from some video arcade game attraction.
It seems this new version must appeal more to kids who like video games rather than a more true golf game. I wonder if this new group is likely to spend $50 for a virtual golf club or $10 for balls.
I can't find a multiplayer game on the arcade version except for coin games. Maybe a dozen games, however none that I played the coin games with had ever played or heard of the flash version. Also I believe every one of them was playing with starter, or close to , clubs and balls. I can't see how WGT is making a lot of money off these guys.
Actually, I hope they lose so much money , they either have to get new technology to keep their base or another better golf game comes along.
I do like one thing about the arcade version, the heartbeat.
